back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 948 The Real Armageddon
In the imperial palace, in the Chui Gong Hall, Lu Chengqi also received the good news.

It's just that unlike ordinary people, Lu Chengqi thinks more and goes further: "Raozhou... Where is Raozhou?"

The Pegasus Express said honestly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Raozhou is located in the northwest of Linhuang Mansion in Shangjing, Liao Dynasty..."

Lu Chengqi got up and looked at the world map behind him.

"Oh, it's here. Only over [-] people from the Liao Kingdom were killed, isn't it too small?" Lu Chengqi murmured.

The Pegasus emergency report didn't know how to answer. The imperial army had only 1 cavalry, and they had "borrowed" more than 8 from the frontier army to have [-] horses.This cavalry and horses are not good enough, if the Khitan want to run, how can they catch up?
"I see, you go down to receive the reward!" Lu Chengqi said slowly.

After Pegasus urgently reported that Xie En had retired, Lu Chengqi had someone summon the six ministers, the Political Advisor, the Privy Council, the Military Staff Department, and cabinet ministers to the Chui Gong Hall to discuss matters.

These yamen formed Dashun's civil and military institutions.It can be said that it is the center of Dashun, the center of the imperial court.If these departments went on strike, the Dashun court would be paralyzed.

After Feng Jing, Wen Yanbo, Sima Guang and other important ministers entered the Chuigong Hall, Lu Chengqi had already ordered chairs to be prepared, and their news was not too slow, as they had already known the good news from the front line.Seeing that the emperor was still reviewing the memorial calmly, they felt uneasy, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in Lu Chengqi's gourd.

In less than a quarter of an hour, after all the ministers arrived, Lu Chengqi finally stopped writing.

"Your Majesty, see you! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Lu Chengqi said seriously: "Why do I like it?"

"Your Majesty is very powerful, the army broke through Raozhou of the Liao Kingdom, and the Linhuang Mansion is right in front of you. Isn't this a matter of great joy?" Zhong Gu, Minister of the Ministry of War, laughed.

Lu Chengqi shook his head: "The big battle is about to start, but the decisive battle has not yet come. What's the point of a mere victory? Today, I summoned all the ministers to talk about this. It's not about this matter. Lin Qing, Zhong Qing, you can talk about that matter."

After Lin Zhenzhong and Zhong Gu looked at each other, Lin Zhenzhong stood up and said, "Your Majesty, are you talking about the straight road outside the Great Wall?"

"That's right, I just want to know, how is the construction going?" Lu Chengqi laughed.

"It's going well!" Lin Zhenzhong said quickly, "It's the treasury..."

"Let's discuss this again!" Lu Chengqi gave him a meaningful look, and Lin Zhen was stunned, not daring to say another word.

Zhong Gu went on to say: "Your Majesty, I have received the military rations and military salaries transferred by the household department, and sent a large army to escort them to Yunneizhou City."

Lu Chengqi nodded: "The three armies have not yet moved, and the food and grass will go first. I estimate that the army's food and grass are almost exhausted, and they must be delivered as soon as possible."

Zhong Gu didn't dare to neglect: "I obey the order! After returning, I will supervise it immediately!"

Lu Cheng inspired him to sit down, and then asked again: "Wu Qing, I asked you to select talents with both wisdom and courage, have you selected?"

Wu Xianzhi, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, quickly stood up and gave a long salute: "Reporting to Your Majesty, 210 alternate tenth-rank officials have been selected, all of whom are talented, virtuous, wise and brave!"

"It's so good!" Lu Chengqi said lightly, "These tenth-rank officials who are waiting to be employed will be retained. I want to build a city beside Chidao and Zhidao. These tenth-rank officials will be the local officials of the grassland in the future!"

Wu Xianzhi finally understood Lu Chengqi's plan, and his heart trembled: "I obey the order!"

All the people here are the top figures in Dashun, where can't you hear Lu Chengqi's great ambition?The Liao Kingdom has not been wiped out yet, and I already want to continue the experience of governing Jiaozhi.To put it nicely, it's planning for a rainy day; to put it badly, it's arrogance.If the Liao Kingdom was really so easy to destroy, Taizu Gaozong would have been destroyed long ago. Why is it so big that it can't be destroyed now?
Lu Chengqi said slowly: "My plan must be known to all the lords. But unlike Jiaozhi, there are mostly grasslands in the north and it is not suitable for farming. I want to drive the herdsmen to graze in enclosures. One household is counted as one hectare of grassland, and this place is easy to use. It is his family's land of eternal pasture. As for the water source, it is shared by thousands of households. What do you think of this plan?"

"This……"

All the ministers present gasped, the emperor really dared to think about it!
Enclosing nomads on the land is something that no generation dared to think about. Why is he so confident?
But it seems to work. The reason why nomads are troubled is because they live by water and grass.Wherever the grasslands are rich in water and grass, they will graze there.

This kind of life depends on the sky.

Once the snow falls and there is no food, these nomads will desperately go south to plunder property and food in order to survive... To put it bluntly, it is just for survival.Once they are confined to the land like the Han people, they will lose their wildness.

After all, Feng Jing was the chief assistant of the cabinet, so he got up immediately and said, "Your Majesty, if there is a hundred years of heavy snow and the grassland is completely green, then where will these herdsmen go?"

Lu Chengqi smiled mysteriously: "There is no food on the grassland, so there is no food in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Feng Jing was taken aback: "Your Majesty wants to transport the rice from the south of the Yangtze River to the grassland?"

Lu Chengqi nodded: "If you want long-term stability, you must do this. In fact, if the herdsmen have experience, they will prepare enough hay for the winter, and even plant pasture by themselves. Once the hay is ready, the cattle, sheep, horses, and camels will not starve to death. Frozen to death, why are you afraid of not eating?"

"Can pasture be grown?" The ministers present looked at each other, they had never heard such a statement.

Lu Chengqi said seriously: "Food can be grown, but why can't pasture be grown? The Han people eat rice and wheat, but it's just straightforward; the grassland people eat beef and mutton, but because cattle and sheep eat grass, they eat cattle and sheep. Essentially, there is no difference. Since rice and millet can be grown, why can’t grass be grown?”

Feng Jing finally understood: "Your Majesty, if this move really works, then I will have a smooth future, and there will be no more troubles in the north!"

Lu Chengqi nodded his head: "The success of this matter is in the present, and the benefits will be in the future! The grassland and the Central Plains complement each other, and if the two depend on each other, the grassland will never rebel!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

This time, these ministers who pretended to be lofty and extraordinary were finally convinced.Lu Chengqi thought about things that they dared not think about, although it was unimaginable, but there was something feasible, how could this make them unconvinced?

Lu Chengqi sighed: "The defeat of the Liao Kingdom is not a matter of decisive battle, this matter is the real decisive battle. Only when the troubles of the grassland are solved, can I rest assured!" Speaking of this, he added another sentence in his heart: "The officials and gentry It's also a real Armageddon, just for me."

Feng Jing said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to do my best to help!"

Immediately, all the courtiers present expressed their views, and the matter was made clear, Lu Chengqi just wanted them to express their views.Even if they disagree, Lu Chengqi still wants to implement this policy.If the harm of nomads can be resolved, how can these ministers object?

When these ministers expressed their views, Lu Chengqi told them to keep it secret, and then dismissed them.

"Food, the most important thing is food!" Lu Chengqi murmured looking at the empty Chuigong Palace, and suddenly blurted out this sentence, "It seems that the trip to Nanyang and America is about to start..."

He turned his head, looked at the huge world map, and his eyes stayed on the vast South Seas and the American continent, and he didn't even notice it. How hot his eyes were, it seemed that he wanted to take these two lands as his own The same...Of course, he also knows that this is a bit unrealistic.Not to mention the Americas, even in Southeast Asia, it takes a year to go back and forth.Immigration is fine, but it is really powerless to accept it as a territory.It's better to bring the crops back, and the people will not rebel if they have something to eat...
